I am also totally new on this PhoneGap world and I had the same problem with iOS version.

Make sure you use version 2.0.0, since at today, version 2.0.1 is missing the .pkg file. Follow the tutorial in PhoneGap.com.

When you run the ./create /user/myhome/documents/HelloWorld com.mydomain.HelloWorld HelloWorld, and you open the HelloWorld.xcodeproj, select the HelloWorld project, then go to Targets, click the HelloWorld item, then go to Build Phases tab. Expand the Target Dependencies option. There should be a CordobaLib item listed, and if there is one, deleted it, and add it again.

It took me hours to find this out, hope it saves time to others!
